Yup. I'm going with a Flathead.
Why is there such a difference in the different applications? Is it the type of steering box? Is it the pedal assembly? Or is it a combination of...
Here's a nice write up I found.... http://www.hotrod.com/articles/1004sr-cowl-steering-setup/
I've seen the cowl steering in a lot of hot rods and I actually didn't think it was going to be as involved as I'm noticing. I got in touch with...

I guess another question I should ask is: Has anyone heard of Harold "Putt" Smith. Can you recommend him?
Well that's no fun. For me, 80% of the fun is the build.
My first mission is to find a good machine shop, within driving distance. I'm in central FLA. So far closest I found is in College Park, GA....
